Explanation:

• The Mansabdari system was a unique administrative system developed by the Mughals in India. It was designed and established by Mughal Emperor Akbar. Hence statement 1 is not correct. • The term Mansabdar referred to an individual who holds a mansab, meaning a position or rank. It was a grading system used by the Mughals to fix Zat or rank, Salary and Sawar or military responsibilities. The Mansabdars were military commanders, high civil and military officers • Ahadis were the individual troopers maintained/recruited by the Mughal rulers. They were a highly trusted corps, being recruited directly by the emperors and having their own muster master. They were not associated with the Manasabdars. The Mansabdars had to maintain their own force. The sawar rank of a mansabdar indicated the number of horsemen needed to the kept by the Mansabdar. Hence statement 2 is correct. • The salaries of the mansabdars were stated in rupees but they were generally not paid in cash, but by assigning them a jagir. Mansabdars preferred a jagir because cash payments were likely to be delayed and sometimes entailed a lot of harassment. However, Jagirs were not hereditary and were transferred by rulers at any time. Hence, statement 3 is correct. • Tajwiz was a petition presented by a nobleman to the emperor, recommending that an applicant be recruited as mansabdar. If the applicant was found suitable a mansab was granted to him.
